Not bad….200+ miles per tank.
I put in £20 a week in my Clio with fuel at 114.99 ppl and commute 170 miles per week.
I worked out that I have to average 43.4 mpg to make £20 last. :lol:I reckon an extra £10 will get my future MX-3 to work and back.
But the main thing is that in 3 months time I will have cleared a loan and so I'll be much better off so not fussed about fuel cost too much.

hasnt the FTO got a stupid insurabce group like 18 or something?

Not sure TBH mate. :?
I know I got mine insured whe I was with AON insurance and had it on an 'everyday classic' policy. £830 Fully comp with just me as the named driver….would have been cheaper had I got my old man on the insurance too at the time.
Some people were paying sky high premiums.... :(
Being an import its not looked on too kindly thats for sure. :wink:

I heard the FTO was quite slow for what it is :?

18miles round trip for work x 5 days a week =96 miles
10miles round trip to gym, gfs then home x4 a week = 40miles
then of a weekend id say i do about 40-60 miles depending what i feel like doingso for jus shy of 200 miles say it costs me about £50 a week! i do a £40 on saturday or sunday when i go my mums i fill up cus fuel by hers is cheaper am usually runnin low by this point and usually by friday i eed to stik abit more in!
so on the basis of 5000pence / 115 am getin like 43.5 litres which is around 10 gallon
so 200 miles for 50quid 10 gallons
200/10
i get about 20 to the gallon maybe a lilo bit more lolbut hey thats alot compared to my mate he has a v8 mustang an he gets 7 to the gallon lol

wow that's pretty bad mpg! I often 230 per tank which is £43, made up of 10mile trips.
I have got nearly 300 per tank when driving to dublin and back was the majority of it!

you should have thrown us a bell Marco, there are 3 of us in the Dublin area.
We could have had a meet of 4/5's of the Irish Contingent!
